Severity: important
Tags: security upstream

Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for poppler.

CVE-2019-10018[0]:
| An issue was discovered in Xpdf 4.01.01. There is an FPE in the
| function PostScriptFunction::exec at Function.cc for the psOpIdiv
| case.

The above issue originally reported for Xpdf seems to actually affect
poppler. Cf. [1]. Might you check with upstream to double check? I
explicitly this time have not set any affected version as its not
fully clear.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
